Zeus asked us to share this Info for tomorrow’s ice cream sundae party for everyone:

Dr. Stevenson and several people who originally opened the hospital will be blowing out candles and cutting the cake at 12:00 pm.

If you can’t make it at noon, don’t worry, we will be serving ice cream sundaes and cupcakes from open until close!

We are getting ready to party, are you ready?

Come see us and celebrate with us tomorrow, Thursday June 26, from 8am to 6pm to celebrate 30 years of the Exotic Bird Hospital.🎉❤️🥳🎂

We would like to wish our vet tech/lab tech Ashley a very Happy Birthday today!🥳

Ashley can often be seen caring for our patients in the back or working in our lab.

In this video, Ashley took time out during her busy shift to bring our boarder Willie out for pictures so we could post him to try to get him adopted.

Ashley is kind and helpful like that. She genuinely cares about Willie and our other patients, so she is always willing to help and go the extra mile. Ashley is often quietly doing extra behind the scenes, and she is known for being great with our patients and being really funny.

We are grateful for Ashley for her hard work, caring and compassionate nature, and willingness to help in any way she can. We hope she has a great birthday today!🥳🎉

*Willie the DYH Amazon is still boarding here. He is a Phoenix Landing Foundation bird and is available for foster/adoption. He is cute, funny, and quite the singer/comedian/performer when he feels like it, but on this particular day, he was not in a singing mood.😂🦜💕

Willie will be attending our ice cream party this Thursday so come meet him!❤️

Our vet tech Faith always makes sure our patients and boarders have a good time. Here she is letting our boarder Rosita lick her nose, lol. Rosita is a sweetheart and clearly feels very comfortable with Faith. (Rosita is a Phoenix Landing Foundation bird available for adoption).😍💕

Faith recently had her four-year work anniversary. We are incredibly grateful we have had four years of Faith caring for our patients, and we know our patients are happy about it too!🥳💕

As we approach our 30 Year Anniversary here at the Exotic Bird Hospital, it’s the people like Faith and our veterinarians and other staff members who have made 30 years possible and in doing so, made a connection with the people and pets we are privileged to see.

We are thankful for Faith’s ability to connect and celebrate the unique characteristics each of our staff members bring to our hospital.❤️

We would like to wish our vet tech Shayna a very Happy Birthday today! 🥳🎉

Shayna is sweet and gentle with our patients, attentive and helpful with our doctors and techs, and kind and thoughtful with everyone. She can often be seen assisting our veterinarians, holding for trims, or cuddling our patients.

Shayna is caring and hardworking. Her sense of humor and easygoing nature make her enjoyable to work with. We are grateful to have her on our team and hope she has a wonderful birthday today!🎉🥳❤️

UPDATE: We have taken info of people interested in fostering/adopting this cute canary and appreciate so many people willing to help with fostering/adopting!

This bird was just dropped off this morning, so we will be doing an exam and testing to make sure this little bird is healthy and tests negative for parasites and chlamydia before placing him with a foster or adopter.

We have taken down the info of people contacting us so far, but if anyone is still interested, please reach out here by message or send us an email at [email protected]

There is no adoption fee, but we would sincerely appreciate if anyone wants to donate to his care as he is listed with our Help-A-Pet fund.❤️

Feel free to share this post to help find this cutie a foster. (Jacksonville, FL area)❤️🦜💕

Do you have any small bowls or flat container lids you don’t need?

Small bowls and flat, shallow lids like the ones pictured are perfect food and water dishes for some of our patients. If you have any you don’t need or any extras you can spare, we would love to have them.

Donations of bowls and lids, newspapers, and towels of all sizes are always appreciated and can be dropped off anytime during our regular business hours.

Big, heartfelt thanks to everyone who has donated items in the past.❤️

Feel free to share this post with anyone who might have any small bowls or lids they would be willing to donate. 😊

Our latest segment of Help-A-Pet features Angel, a juvenile fancy pigeon. Angel was brought in with the expectation euthanasia would be the unfortunate yet necessary outcome.

However, upon examination, Dr Smith discovered this little pigeon patient was quite alert but plagued by a significant internal parasite load, which was why he or she wasn’t eating!

The client and the pigeon rescue that assisted her were happy to hear the news but were unable to take responsibility for the medical needs, which included hospitalization and supportive care, so they relinquished Angel to us under our Help-A-Pet fund.

Angel is currently being treated for parasites and given medical care that initially included being tube fed. Angel is already gaining weight and developing muscle tone and feeling much better!

If you’d like to make a donation to help us help pets like Angel and the many found parrots we have helped, you can click the link to our PayPal, call us at 904-256-0043, or consider buying a cute tote bag or t-shirt to donate and show your support from the additional link to Bonfire.

We really appreciate all of you caring about the welfare of pets like Angel and the many found birds that have needed help. We will be posting updates on Angel’s progress and on some of the other found birds your generosity has helped.❤️

PHONES ARE WORKING AGAIN.🥳

Our phones are not working properly at the moment. It’s not because our patients are using them to FaceTime, at least we haven’t caught anyone yet…

Good news is we can still send and receive text messages from our regular number, so if you need us, send us a text to 904-256-0043. We hope to have this issue resolved soon. Thank you for your patience.😊

We want to wish our lead tech Matt a very Happy Birthday today!

(Except Kermit. She said she doesn’t wish him a Happy Birthday as she still has animosity from recently getting toweled and trimmed by Matt).😂

As the pictures show, Matt stays busy, often assisting our veterinarians with emergencies and surgeries, caring for hospitalized patients, trimming on tech trim days, training other veterinary technicians, and handling things like radiographs and surgery prep behind the scenes.

Matt’s own knowledge and experience combined with years of working closely with our veterinarians make him a valuable asset to our hospital. We hope he has a great birthday, and he happens to be working today.

If Matt has a birthday request, it might be for towel donations, especially hand towels (but towels of all sizes are appreciated) as he recently requested a post for towel donations, and we are just recalling that now, a week or so later, on his birthday. 🙈

Happy Birthday Matt! If anyone has any towels you’d like to donate, bring them here to Matt for his birthday.🎉🥳
